We did it! Or maybe time did it, despite our howling wildly and clinging to its ankles. Either way, we’ve made it to the final week of the Advent season.

Behind today’s door, we have a second post from raidergirl3 at an adventure in reading. She shares memories of Christmas visits to her grandmother and includes one of her Nan’s recipes for us to try. (For those of you don’t know, raidergirl3 is the longest-running participant in the Virtual Advent Tour, which I’m pretty sure is how we “met” oh so many years ago now.)

Before you head off to her blog, though, make sure you listen to the song above. I like to find a Canadian song to pair up with raidergirl3’s post every year. This year, I found a link to “Dear Old Santa,” written and performed by Liah Clayton, a 16-year-old girl from Prince Edward Island, who is donating the song’s proceeds to CBC’s Feed a Family Campaign.

I’ll see you back here tomorrow.
